Interiors in association with Oliver Redfern Design. Opened August 2024.
Waterside location and views are highlights at this venue. We were tasked with upgrading its appeal to customers who arrive by yacht and might stay for dinner, while retaining its welcome to others used to dropping in for an early morning coffee.
PHOTOGRAPHS COMING SOON.
This popular café/restaurant at Swanwick Marina had been housed in a modest shell for many years. Planning consents for a new building with an extended raised decking area and full glazed frontage were achieved in 2023.
The interior needed to feel as inviting in midwinter as under bright summer sunshine. We devised a finishes scheme to compliment the new sharper architecture while adding earthiness and texture. We wanted to maintain a clear view of the water and moorings for as many diners as possible and this drove the new seating layout. Banquette seating divides the open footprint into areas which could feel intimate, while bar, shelving and fit-out details reference robust industrial construction. We designed exterior seating to compliment the decking and interior.
